No, it's a mercantilist economy. It's what Adam Smith wrote "wealth of nations" to attack proving the real free market (little or no tax or regulations, the "simple and obvious system of natural liberty") is better.

No it isn't. Christ, how many people can come up with that ignorant crap the WHOLE TIME. Socialism is an economic theory based on redistribution of wealth. State socialism (Marxism) is a socio-economic political theory with a government, libertarian socialism (anarchism) is a socio-economic political theory without a government.
